Dastardly deeds at St Bride's / Debbie Young.

When Gemma Lamb takes a job at a quirky English girls' boarding school, she believes she's found the perfect escape route from her controlling boyfriend - until she discovers the rest of the staff are hiding sinister secrets: * Hairnet, the eccentric headmistress who doesn't hold with academic qualifications * Oriana Bliss, Head of Maths and master of disguise * Joscelyn Spryke, the suspiciously rugged Head of PE * Geography teacher Mavis Brook, surreptitiously selling off the library books * creepy night watchman Max Security, with his network of hidden tunnels. Even McPhee, the school cat, is leading a double life. Tucked away in the school's beautiful private estate in the Cotswolds, can Gemma stay safe and build a new independent future, or will past secrets catch up with her and the rest of the staff? With a little help from her new friends, including some wise pupils, she's going to give it her best shot...
